• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched

particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the apparatus.

• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the

manufacturer.

• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when

unused for long periods of time.

• Turning off the power switch does not completely isolate

this product from the power line so remove the plug from
the socket if not using it for extended periods of time.

• Install this product near the wall socket and keep the power

plug easily accessible.

• WARNING—This apparatus shall be connected to a mains

socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus,

not operate normally, or has been dropped.

• Do not install this equipment on the far position from wall

outlet and/or convenience receptacle.

• Do not install this equipment in a confined space such as a

box for the conveyance or similar unit.

• Excessive sound pressure from earphones and

headphones can cause hearing loss.

• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table

specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/
apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

D

NEVER attempt to bypass the fuses or fit ones of
the incorrect values.

E

DO NOT attempt to remove the amplifier chassis,
there are no user serviceable parts.

ing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as when the power
supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been
spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture,
does not operate normally or has been dropped.

CAUTION:

 Any changes or modifications not expressly

approved by the party responsible for compliance
may void the users authority to operate the equip-
ment.

exception of the speaker lead, used to connect to
the AC15/AC30 Heritage Collection are of a high
quality, screened type. These should not exceed 10
metres in length.
Always use a non-screened Vox approved speaker
lead with the AC15/AC30 Amplifier and extension
cabinets.
